A what3words Case Study
Autoaddress, Ireland’s leading supplier of Eircode address solutions, has launched a free iOS and Android app that combines Eircode and what3words to help users find and share any location in Ireland. The need arose because over 35% of Irish addresses are shared by more than one property and many delivery points (loading bays, access points or remote sites) don’t have a unique postcode, making accurate deliveries and directions difficult.
The app uses unique Eircodes for property addresses and what3words to pinpoint any 3 m x 3 m location, and lets users save and share addresses with instant distance and travel-time estimates and one-tap navigation. For drivers and logistics teams it adds delivery saving, route optimisation, delivery status recording and Delivery Zone codes with real-time confirmations — improving location accuracy, reducing delivery errors and streamlining operations.
